Hot And Sultry Nights Testo

Man, you know it isn't easy living here It gets so heavy on these hot and sultry nights Can't even love your lover. Oh, I didn't think it would be carnival I could use a cool occasional reprieve On these hot and sultry nights. Here in our corner of the world A depot on the poppy trail We used to think we'd live for ever Pleasures would never fail. One sunny day they closed us down Some men came round and burned the fields The trade is gone The town is dying No one knows what to feel. Man, you know it isn't easy living here It gets so heavy on these hot and sultry nights Can't even love your lover. Oh, I didn't think it would be carnival I could use a cool occasional reprieve On these hot and sultry nights. I hear a sad lamenting song We've all grown old before our time I watched them set the fields on fire Crying till I was blind. Now those who could have moved away Left only rags and bones behind. Nobody talks about tomorrows Only hot and sultry nights. (repeat first verse in Spanish)
